  • Abstract
    Based on the analysis of the characteristics of Flexible Job-shop Scheduling Problem (FJSP), an improved genetic algorithm is proposed to minimize the make span. The algorithm adopts a new initialization method to improve the quality of the initial population and to accelerate the speed of the algorithm´s convergence. Considering the characteristic of the problem, reasonable chromosome encoding, crossover and mutation operator are given, and then the effectiveness of the improved algorithm is proved by testing.
